Journey our God let natural supernatural adventure with us

Tag Archives: Hearing Gods voice

I always had this mindset that God either only speaks to SUPER spiritual people or that He must speak through a loud thundering voice. But Scripture tells us something different in 1.Kings 19,11-12

“So He said, “Go forth and stand on the mountain before theLord.” And behold, theLord was passing by! Anda great and strong wind was rending the mountains and breaking in pieces the rocks before theLord;buttheLordwasnot in the wind. And after the wind an earthquake,buttheLordwasnot in the earthquake.After the earthquake a fire,butthe Lordwasnot in the fire; and after the firea sound of a gentle blowing.”

Most of the time He speaks in a gentle, inner voice to our spirit, if we are focused on Him, wanting to hear from Him. I learned a concept of hearing His voice that has helped me a lot to hear His voice, it can be found in Habakkuk 2:

“I willstand on my guard post and station myself on the rampart; and I willkeep watch to seewhat He will speak to me, and how I may replywhen I am reproved. Then theLordanswered me and said, “Record the vision and inscribeiton tablets.”

As most of us I am learning more and more to listen to His voice and DO what it tells me. How does God speak to us? HE speaks in ways we understand it best – through circumstances, through nature, through bill boards along the street, through other people, through His still small voice, through our daily life.

I wanna give you a very practical example. I am working as a Pastry Chef, there are cakes I really like to make and other ones I’d rather avoid as – for some odd reason – I just do not like them at all. Really! Recently God spoke to me to make a certain type of cake – one of the sorts I don’t like. That’s one of those moments where I used to discuss if that could be really God, why would He care about something like that? Well, because HE loves me and He sees things in the future that I don’t see. So, I made that cake and sure enough an order came in for exact that cake. Wow!

That really taught me a lesson, to pay more attention to the little promptings of the Holy Spirit. It is so rewarding, if we are obedient in the little things, He will give us the bigger things. I encourage you, try it out in the next few days, and listen closely to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. I promise you, you will be amazed!
